Well, if you plan to confess that you are attracted him, you shouldn't do it in a flirty fashion. According to Miss Manners (the original one who wrote the humongous book in the early twentieth century), "The advantage of flirting is that neither party is answerable for any statements made. One might say, 'You are very handsome,' but the other party should not reply, 'what are you going to do about that?'"
The ambiguity and wordplay involved in flirting don't create an appropriate atmosphere for admitting love because the very essence of flirting is the doubt it creates about one's true intentions: the object is to entice the other party without committing oneself. If you're really interested in this guy, tell him so flatly, especially if he's shy.
I say ask him out. I doubt that he will ask you out, unless you drop some really big hints that you like him. Then you would wait the time it takes for him to get his courage. If he says no, that doesn't mean he doesn't like you its just he is nervous about talking about it and saying no is easier. Get to know him a little better and ask him in private so he doesn't feel pressure if he hesitates ask him if he wants some time to think about it. Don't feel bad if he says no, prob just cause he is shy especially around you cause you like him. I say go for it and good luck!
Please, if you think it's right and you're brave enough to tell him, just do it! You have nothing to lose if he doesn't like you back and everything to gain if he does. I wish I had as much courage to have told the guy I like that I did like him... Be spontaneous. Catch him when he least expects it, and then tell him up front. He'll be flattered at the very least. Good luck! :)

YOU CAN DO IT! sometimes playing games and dropping hints is fun but every guy is different. if he's a shy guy like you mentioned, then he could be thinking of a way to approach you about dating and not sound dumb. it will make it a lot easier for him if you did tell him. screw waiting for him. so many possibilities are wasted when girls "wait" for a guy to ask them out.
as for telling him, just say "hey your cute/handsome" or whatever. it doesn't have to sound so serious. make eye contact and smile. even if it makes you blush. he should get it
Don't tell him straight forward you like him, instead tell him you want to hang out more often. Or you should be more touchy with him like sitting really close and grabbing his arm. tell him he looks good or smells good. after that he'll start to think you really like him and then ask him if he likes you. if he says yes then you hook up with him, but its sort of a turn off to say directly that you like him
No it's awesome. Do it. Straight forward is a million times better than hints. Hints and waiting might not even work. Your friends are idiots.
